Comment on The biggest box office bombs of 2023; Disney leads with four entries in ~movies
jujubunicorn Link ParentI think the action in temple of doom is fucking fantastic but the racial stuff is really hard to move past because it is injected into every part of the movie. I also think Indy is horribly...I think the action in temple of doom is fucking fantastic but the racial stuff is really hard to move past because it is injected into every part of the movie.
I also think Indy is horribly mischaracterised. We watch him shake off his rough and gruff and slightly misogynistic persona in Raiders so seeing it come back in full force is kinda upsetting imo. Even though it's a prequel.
Not to mention Willie is super fucking annoying and a spit in the face of the people who liked the the strong female representation that was Marion (in the context of the time, she could still be better obviously).
Temple just has too much going against it to be really held up against 1 and 3. Although that shirt getting more ripped towards the end of the movie is peak Indy.

jujubunicorn (edited )LinkAlex Garland's last movie tended to dip a bit to much into what I call "nice guy performative feminism". It's the "I'm one of the good ones" spiel".

Which isn't necessary a bad thing but it was more then typically egregious in Men.
I thought this was a huge step on the right direction for him.
It seems like he really got to flex his pure skill as a film maker here. Especially the sound design and editing.

jujubunicorn Link ParentI had the exact same thoughts about Lee's death. Felt very anti climatic. Especially who stupid it was for the younger reporter to try and take that picture.I had the exact same thoughts about Lee's death. Felt very anti climatic.

Comment on What is your "can't miss" movie that you will not pass up if showing in theaters? in ~movies
jujubunicorn LinkClose Encounters of a Third Time showed at the Cinerama (now SIFF downtown) in Seattle when I was around 11. It forever changed me and is the reason I make movies. I would never pass up a showing...Close Encounters of a Third Time showed at the Cinerama (now SIFF downtown) in Seattle when I was around 11. It forever changed me and is the reason I make movies.

Comment on Discord to start showing ads for gamers to boost revenue in ~tech
jujubunicorn Link ParentMostly the mobile app is what I'm talking about. And all the nitro features it constantly tries to push. I may be just more jaded when it comes to it.Mostly the mobile app is what I'm talking about. And all the nitro features it constantly tries to push. I may be just more jaded when it comes to it.

Idk me and most my friends feel like it's only gotten worse over time with feature creep and baffling UI decisions.Discord has been a great product?

jujubunicorn Link ParentMy experience is anecdotal but that stranger danger thing was definitely not a huge problem where I live. Of course there is a general warriness but nothing all encompassing like you're saying....My experience is anecdotal but that stranger danger thing was definitely not a huge problem where I live.

jujubunicorn LinkI'm pretty sure I agree with her? Idk that was a lot to read. Although she does say to focus less on social media and more on how young people have severed connections. But aren't our connections...I'm pretty sure I agree with her? Idk that was a lot to read. Although she does say to focus less on social media and more on how young people have severed connections.
